A novel ferrofluid was proposed and composited by replacing the Newtonian base medium with non-Newtonian viscoelastic fluid, and this novel ferrofluid holds both promising effects of viscoelastic 3D focusing and negative magnetophoresis. Both effects were successfully employed together in a simple microfluidic device to sort microparticles in a continuous and sheath-less manner.
